Editorial Reviews
Review
An impressive display of careful attention and mature scholarly interest. THE MEDIEVAL REVIEW
[T]he Companion will certainly prove useful to fifteenth-century specialists and nonspecialists alike. . . . In short, this is a worthy volume, which manages at once to establish an authoritative perspective on the current state of fifteenth-century studies and to point the field in some new directions.
